Client is unusable with Wayland

[pescepalla]

I'm trying to use the Filen client under Hyprland but the UX is dismal and I'm here a) hoping the rclone integration is done soon (as it's been promised for years now) and/or b) a Wayland-compatible client is developed.

The main issue is that when I launch the client, I can log in correctly. However, the resulting window after that will disappear as soon as I move the mouse, so I cannot even configure the sync.

Launching from terminal I get the following:

(filen-desktop:34096): Gtk-WARNING **: 11:25:23.032: Theme parsing error: gtk-contained-dark.css:2871:228: Missing closing bracket for :not()

What I've tried:

• Killing the client and restarting. This leads nowhere. The only way for the client to show anything again is wiping the ~/.config/filen-desktop directory.
• Prefixing SDL_VIDEODRIVER=x11. This works for some X11 apps, but not for filen-desktop.

OS: Arch Linux

I use Hyprland on Arch Linux and have the same issue, the only difference is that the settings page does not close suddenly, which allow me to set everything up, only the initial page closes after losing focus, resizing or moving.

I've tried installing from all types of sources, launching the AppImage through the terminal but this issue persists. Though no error log is shown on the terminal.

@pescepalla, it shows "No such interface 'org.freedesktop.portal.FileChooser'" for you, so try installing one of the xdg-portals that have a file chooser in this page. It might help you in some level.
